seeing your two posts, I'm thinking you are a bit nervous of the exam. But really there is no need. To answer questions like this you simply have to think about the real world situation from your own experience of Service Management and apply the ITIL terminology and structures to the common sense answer.

So for this one, just think what is important about hardware for these service areas and derive your answer from that.

I would also point out that you cannot rely on answers you get here, because you do not know the background of the respondents (I, for example have not sat an exam in this subject since 1995 - so I probably don't know what I'm talking about most of the time) and you cannot rely on answers to questions that are not the actual exam questions that you will encounter on the day, not even if they look similar._________________"Method goes far to prevent trouble in business: for it makes the task easy, hinders confusion, saves abundance of time, and instructs those that have business depending, both what to do and what to hope."

Maybe I imagined it._________________"Method goes far to prevent trouble in business: for it makes the task easy, hinders confusion, saves abundance of time, and instructs those that have business depending, both what to do and what to hope."
